Paris Saint-Germain will look to register their first win in three competitive matches when they host Reims at Parc des Princes on Saturday.

Heading into this weekend's ninth round of matches in Ligue 1, Carlo Ancelotti's side find themselves second in the table with 16 points, just three points behind leaders and bitter rivals Marseille.

Just before the two-week international break, PSG drew 2-2 with L'OM away from home to recover from their 1-0 away defeat to Porto in the Champions League, their only loss of 2012-13 so far.

Reims too have started the season on a positive note, placing themselves in fifth position in the table with 14 points, just two behind PSG.

Hubert Fournier's side, who gained promotion to the French top flight at the end of last season, lost their opening two matches but are now unbeaten in six.

However, Reims have yet to bag maximum points in an away fixture in Ligue 1 this campaign.

Both PSG and Reims could remain unchanged from their respective last matches.
